Mackie : 802-VLZ3
Description
The 802VLZ3 is a feature-packed, but ultra-compact model in the VLZ3 line of compact mixers, specially designed for applications that require fewer inputs but demand professional features and sound. The 802 VLZ3 is equipped with two mono mic/line channels, one mono mic/stereo line channel and two stereo line-input channels, for a total of eight input channels. Each mic/line channel has phantom power, an input Gain control with 60 dB of gain, a Hi-Z instrument switch (channels 1 and 2), a channel Insert jack (channels 1 and 2), a sharp 18 dB/octave, 100 Hz Low Cut filter, Aux send, 3-band EQ, Pan, Mute/Alt, Solo and a Level control. The stereo line-input channels have all the features of the mic/line channels except phantom power, an input Gain control, a Hi-Z instrument switch, a channel Insert jack and a Low Cut filter.
Mute/Alt 3-4 effectively creates a second stereo bus. The Mute button on each channel mutes that channel in the Main Mix, but also acts as a router to the 3-4 stereo bus, greatly increasing signal routing flexibility. The Control Room/Submix section has its own level control, outputs and input matrix for selecting any combination of Main Mix, Tape In and Alt 3-4 to create custom headphone mixes, to monitor tape levels and more. A separate switch routes this multi-source signal back into the Main Mix.
Aux Send 1 has a master level control and a switch for selecting pre- or post-fader send. There is a stereo return, with its own level control. Other features include a 1/4-inch stereo headphone jack with Level control, stereo 12-segment LED meters, and TRS and XLR stereo output jacks, with a mic/line level switch on the XLR outs (perfect for field recordings). The 802-VLZ3 is a great sounding mixer, full of professional features that are simply not found on competitive compact mixers. The versatile design and extremely small footprint make it the ideal mixer for space-constrained or mobile applications.
